Chapter 232 End of the discussion and convening of the meeting
"You should also know about the witch-hunting movement in the 16th and 17th centuries, right?" Dumbledore adjusted his mood and continued, "It was a purge of all wizards. But only the necromancers were forced to the point of near extinction."
"There are two reasons for this. First, the church, which was the main target at the time, produced a large amount of evidence of the evil deeds of the necromancers. It must be said that controlling people's life and death is such a terrifying thing! Especially among the necromancers, there are really bad apples. Second, wizards who practice necromancy are very easy to identify. They are weak, pale, mentally twisted, and unfriendly and suspicious of others."
"After centuries of persecution, the necromancers were almost wiped out, and a large amount of necromancy was also wiped out... Only a very small number of people who lost their inheritance took the fragments of necromancy and evolved into so-called psychics... Of course, some modern black magic, such as some curses, can still be found in the shadow of the dead. But what about now? There are necromancers in this mysterious organization. I really find it hard to understand."
Yang Tian was really shocked this time: "In other words, this organization is likely to have the books of the Necromancer?"
"This is the most reasonable explanation, but why didn't the Necromancer appear before?" Dumbledore nodded helplessly, but he immediately added: "Maybe the Necromancer didn't need to take action before..."
"The question that I am more concerned about is, what is the purpose of them collecting ordinary Muggles to join the so-called Truth Society?" Yang Tian was still puzzled.
"According to the conversation I overheard, they should be trying to control the votes; in two or three months, it will be the day of the Albanian general election." Dumbledore said seriously.
"What?" Yang was stunned! But thinking about it carefully, he found it even harder to understand: "Wouldn't it be simpler and more convenient to use magic to directly control the Muggle leaders?"
"I guess that we should vote for important figures in the organization and let them step directly to the front?" Dumbledore guessed.
"Full control?" Yang Tian frowned even more deeply. But the next moment, he suddenly said in shock: "Principal, you said that this so-called alien that can change the situation will not require a long time and a large number of people to dig it out, or a large number of lives to fill it?"
"What?" Dumbledore was also moved when he heard this. He thought carefully for a long time before he had to admit secretly that what Yang Tian said was very likely the truth.
However, he did not continue to dwell on this issue. Instead, he said with a more solemn expression: "Compared with the Muggle world, the Albanian magic world is even worse off. Some of their magic families have been temporarily incorporated under strong means, and the remaining families are relying on the Ministry of Magic to resist. But even so, the Ministry of Magic can only barely gather manpower and is in a passive defense stage."
Yang Tian was incredulous and said, "They are just resisting foolishly like this, without any intention of asking for help?"
"Albania is a special place. They don't have good relations with other countries. I feel this is also one of the reasons why Voldemort is hiding here?" Dumbledore said uncertainly.
"Have you found any traces of Voldemort living in Albania?" Yang Tian's heart moved, and he asked immediately.
"Yes, I never thought that Tom could live in a forest for so long." Dumbledore said with emotion.
"Has that forest been unsealed?" Yang Tian asked.
"No, but the Red Robe has been away for a few days. The possibility of anyone else discovering me is very low, except the Red Robe." Dumbledore said confidently.
"Okay, Principal." Yang Tian was a little disappointed, but he still asked solemnly: "What should we do now?"
"I think I have to talk to Fudge. No matter what, we can't let them get something that can turn the situation around so easily, no matter what it is." Dumbledore also looked serious: "Besides, we still have time, don't we?"
"Will Minister Fudge agree?" Thinking of Fudge's hypocritical attitude, Yang Tian questioned.
"It is indeed difficult, but we must strive for it. Moreover, I will mobilize old friends to think of other ways. Fortunately, considering the time, the holidays are coming soon. I can concentrate on dealing with this matter then." Dumbledore was calm.
Yang Tian didn't say anything more, but he knew in his heart that he should prepare for the battle with all his strength, as there was really not much time left...
The next evening, in the new residence of the Yang family in Hogsmeade Village, the living room was crowded. There was nothing that could be done about it. Apart from the friends from Hogwarts, almost everyone on Yang Tian's ship had come.
Elder Xia, Elder Li, Mad Dog, Five Idiots, Cai Yuliangyu, and many of the Yang family's generals were all present! Mrs. Zabini, Sally, Keira, and the newly subjugated Fiammetta were all sitting upright; the old Freeley couple, Heyman Greengrass, Yang Wen, Sophie, and Yang Tian himself were also there...
Seeing Wu Chi and Mad Dog return, Yang Tian was overjoyed. It seemed that they had fully recovered. The family's treatment methods were really amazing! Yang Tian quickly stepped forward and gave them a big hug. He also asked about their injuries and recent conditions, and then returned to his seat with peace of mind.
Seeing everyone gathered, Yang Tian said in a loud voice: "I have called everyone here today. I believe everyone understands the purpose. We really don't have much time left." After that, Yang Tian repeated to everyone in detail the latest information he had obtained from Dumbledore.
"Necromancer? I've heard the older generation mention it." Old man Barnett frowned. "The stronger the Necromancer, the more terrifying he is. Moreover, they are war-oriented wizards. The bonus to Necromancers on large battlefields is multiplied exponentially. Just imagine that your companion who just got to the bottom suddenly stands up and becomes one of the enemies, attacking you crazily. When the enemy's corpse is blown to pieces, but can be reorganized into skeletons and lose the ability to continue fighting you...how huge an impact will that have on morale?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Yang Tian thought about the description of the Necromancer in his previous life and felt nervous. But he still said firmly: "I believe everyone knows how serious this crisis is. This time, we have no way to retreat. All we can do is to be as well prepared as possible."
After that, Yang Tian looked at Madam Zabini and asked, "What is the attitude of the Ministry of Magic?"
Madam Zabini quickly replied, "The Ministry of Magic is extremely indifferent to this matter. Minister Fudge's original words were: Albania is too far away, and we can't reach it!"
Old Master Barnett said sternly, "It seems that this commendation meeting has given him a lot of confidence!"
